Lucky you!

I have, it's an experience.

I like the rugged look of the defender and I could even live with the basic dash etc. but the room for the driver is shocking. Seriously the fiat 500 has more room and is a more comfortable place to be. And yes they are pretty noisy, I believe that's so you're reminded on the heritage!

I liked Steve's ZU alloys on his D3 when he paid me a visit,I reckon they would look good on yours,have you considered LTZs....

Having driven a 500 - new and original :rasp: I can confirm the Fiat has more room - just :shark:

Mind you the new one I drove was LHD and I can't say it was an experience that I'd repeat willingly. Not my cup of tea - but each to their own :thumbright:

Although the newer deafeners don't have flaps, they still have the pressing in the steel for them, so they could easily be retrofitted :thumbright:

No they can't, there's no opening inside the cabin. It's been designed out and the interior completely covers the area.
